VIZ Media publishes the original manga by Yukinobu Tatsu as Dandadan and gave this description for the first volume:
DAN DA DAN Plot
Momo Ayase strikes up an unusual friendship with her schoolâs UFO fanatic, whom she nicknames âOkarunâ because he has a name that is not to be said aloud. While Momo believes in spirits, she thinks aliens are nothing but nonsense. Her new friend, meanwhile, thinks the exact opposite. To settle matters, the two set out to prove each other wrongâMomo to a UFO hotspot and Okarun to a haunted tunnel! What unfolds next is a beautiful story of young loveâŠand oddly horny aliens and spirits?
